One of my earliest moments of radicalization was in 2005 when Larry Summers said that women biologically have less aptitude for science than men. Following that, scores of equally unimpressive people wrote pieces trying to explain or justify his remarks, when they should have called for his removal.

I hadn’t considered that. Thank you for raising that point. I think it does sway me in the other direction.

I think since they were already purchased, that there isn’t anything wrong with giving them away. Maybe you could suggest that anyone claiming them throws a couple of bucks (if they can afford it) to an lgbt+ charity or a women’s shelter?

The mutant baby really frustrated me because so much of the car scene is creepy and unsettling and then it’s just a laughably dumb monster reveal.

One thing I love that I only noticed after binge watching is that Columbo’s schtick with the perps completely turns off when he’s talking to anyone who’s not the perp. If it’s just a rando he needs a small fact from he gets really brusque and to-the-point, like “yadda yadda you’re in my way here.”
